Suppress "spreadsheet will not be saved" message on published sheet

Suppress "spreadsheet will not be saved" message on published sheet

I have published a sheet and have one column on that sheet that the user can edit (a dropdown picklist where the user can select the status for each line). Is there a way to suppress the Zoho Sheet message "Any changes made to this published spreadsheet will not be saved to the original file" when the user changes a cell in that column (picks a different item from the picklist)?

We have a VBA script that is triggered when the column changes that sends the change to our Zoho Creator app, so the user's changes are technically being saved (in our Zoho Creator app) even though the changes will be discarded from the spreadsheet once it is closed. Our users are getting confused because they think their selections are not being saved when they actually are.

We have tried sharing it instead of publishing it, but this doesn't work the way we need it to because we don't want to show the formula bar or the row and column headings (which we cannot hide if we're sharing it but can if we're publishing it).
